At EC Clinic, we provide personalised prenatal care to support your health and your baby’s development throughout pregnancy.
Whether you are newly pregnant or further along, our expert services are designed to help you feel calm, reassured, and well cared for at every stage.
What Is Prenatal Care?
Prenatal care is the regular check-up and monitoring you receive during pregnancy. These visits track your baby’s growth and ensure your health is managed throughout. It includes medical screenings, physical exams, and essential advice tailored to your pregnancy journey.
Early and consistent care helps identify concerns before they become serious and gives you the guidance needed to prepare for labour, delivery, and recovery.
Why Early Prenatal Visits Matter
Starting prenatal care in the early weeks of pregnancy is important. It gives both you and your baby the best chance for a healthy outcome. Early visits allow us to:
- Confirm Pregnancy: Accurate dating and early confirmation.
- Wellbeing Checks: Track physical and emotional health.
- Test Planning: Organise scans and necessary screenings.
- Early Advice: Nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle guidance.
What to Expect During Your Appointments
Each pregnancy is unique, and so is your care plan. Here’s what you can expect at EC Clinic:
- First Check: Blood tests, early scan referral, and guidance on early symptoms.
- Monitoring: Regular checks for blood pressure, urine, and the baby’s growth.
- Screenings: Support with prenatal tests and clear explanations of your options.
- Open Conversations: Time in every visit to ask questions or raise concerns.
